Carwow asks BoostAddict for help, BoostAddict says no and that Carwow's testing sucks

This network is critical of Carwow videos. Are they featured from time to time? Yes. Why? Because Carwow benefits from having certain cars available that never were sold in the US market plus an airstrip they seemingly get to use whenever they want to (poorly) test cars.

We really enjoy the content you push out covering the cars and we hope you like Matís videos.

I was wondering if you could please add a hyperlink to the anchor text "carwow" and link it to our homepage https://www.carwow.co.uk

If you need more information or have any questions, please let me know.

Thank you for your support, we're extremely grateful.

If Carwow read the article they would know BoostAddict and myself specifically are not big fans. If this is coming off salty as the kids say these days, sure, I'm jealous I do not have an airstrip to play with cars at any speed in California. Just acquiring the land would bankrupt me and a city would never permit it anyway. If by some miracle I did pull it off CARB would probably try to squash me for daring to utilize performance cars in the sweet, sweet air of freedom that we all breathe in California.

For Carwow to just ask BoostAddict to add carwow text linking to their site in our articles for free is absurd. It is not my job to help them with their SEO (search engine optimization). The fact the video is posted and getting views is more than enough on this end.

The sheer audacity to ask for free anchored text links to help their Google placement and revenue is rage inducing. Where do they get off?

Well, these are the same people who actually think they do a good job testing cars. Carwow, I tear apart your test videos because the 'testing' is terrible.

Did you not read this?

Because of the M3 starting in the wrong gearthe roll race is closer than it should be. If they were driven properly the RS4 would be closer in the drag race than the roll race.

You do not use trap speeds or start cars in the correct gear. You did a terrible job drag racing an all wheel drive turbo RS4. It should not lose off the line to an SMG E46 M3 CSL. Seriously, figure out what a 1/4 mile trap speed is. It's not hard.

Furthermore, in your other test videos you wait for cars to 'kickdown' instead of starting in the right gear from a roll. Are these videos supposed to be about seeing which car is fastest or which transmission downshifts best? It's idiotic.

You drag and roll race the Porsche 992 C4S, BMW 850i, Nissan GT-R Nismo, and the Audi R8 V10 Plus. The Audi wins the drag race yet loses the roll race to the GT-R despite pulling hardest in the drag race. Why does the R8 lose? Because you morons put it in the wrong gear.

Stop. Racing. Cars. In. The. Wrong. Gear.

A 50 mph roll from third gear? The R8 should be in second gear. Not third. What is the point of doing these videos if you screw up basic details?

Even so, why not put in minimal effort and use a GPS box to time acceleration? That way it eliminates your kickdown nonsense and being in the wrong gear stupidity as it times the cars from speed to speed. That way you don't have to try to get four cars to start at the same time at speed with walkie-talkies which is just stupid to begin with.

Provide some useful testing data and actually have legitimate comparisons instead of pandering for YouTube views and begging for links so you can get more commissions from auto sales you utter dipsticks.

Hopefully you read this and improve your videos. Or keep the quality low. Either way don't ever ask me to do your work for you ever again.
